What shapes are the orbits of many comets?
Most cross orbits of planets which allows it to hit the planets easier. They do not go into a full orbit at all.
What is the main difference between the orbits of the inner and outer planets?
The planets revolve in elliptical orbits. The inner planets have orbits 230 million km or less from the Sun. The outer planets have orbits 775 million km or greater.
What are the planets orbits?
The planets orbits are the routes or paths that the planets follow around our sun. One orbit is one trip around the sun (one year).
What forces cause the planets to go around the sun and stay in their orbits?
gravity
Why do different planets have different length orbits?
Different planets have different orbit lengths because of their distance from the sun. Planets closer to the sun have shorter orbits, and planets farther away have longer orbits.
What are the four planets that have orbits from most to least?
All the planets have orbits so four cannot be picked out.
Does Saturn have star that orbits it?
Planets cannot have stars orbiting them by definition.
What makes the planets go around the sun?

Why are Saturn's moons not planets?
A moon is an object that orbits a planet. A planet cannot orbit another planet.
What forces cause the planets to go around the sun and stay in their orbits?
gravity
Which two planets overlap?
The two planets with overlapping orbits are Neptune and Pluto. These are the only two planets that have overlapping orbits.
Why do different planets have different length orbits?
Different planets have different orbit lengths because of their distance from the sun. Planets closer to the sun have shorter orbits, and planets farther away have longer orbits.
What force is responible for the orbits of the planets in the solar system?
Gravity from the Sun holds the planets in their orbits.
What are the orbits of the gas giant planets?
They are the path taken by the gas giant planets (that is Jupiter and Saturn) as they go round the Sun.
